Green Hills of Africa

Green Hills of Africa is Ernest Hemingway's lyrical journal of a month on safari in the great game country of East Africa, where he & his wife Pauline journeyed in December 1933. Hemingway's well-known interest in — & fascination with — big-game hunting is magnificently captured in this evocative account of his trip. It is an examination of the lure of the hunt & an impassioned portrait of the glory of the African landscape & of the beauty of a wilderness that was, even then, being threatened by the incursions of man.
